Paroles : Small Town Hypocrite (Remix)
Hand me down dreams got me high in the rafters
Homecoming queen couldn't be an outsider
So there I'd sit, with a cigarette lit in a leather jacket
I found a boy who was a stranger too
In a one-horse town at a table for two
We had matching scars and matching tattoos, both dying to fit in
Ain't that some sh*t?
We're just small town hypocrites
And that scholarship was a ship that sailed
When I chose you and daddy gave me hell
I made myself into someone else just to love you, damn, I loved you
Took all my plans and I put 'em in a box
Phantom pains for the wings I lost
Had me circling rings in the catalogs
For seven years and you never got the hint
Ain't that some sh*t?
I'm just a small town hypocrite
Swore we'd be running, running, running this town
But you're just running, running, running around
And I'm staring at a picket fence
Wonderin' where the hell time went
I should've been running, running, running by now
But I just hang around
Love shot me out like a rocket
Never to return, and man, I forgot it
How it feels to fall from orbit
And land on shifting sands
I found my heart at the bottom of a bucket
You said you needed space, and damnit, I bought it
'Til you moved in a vinyl-sided double-wide
With a couple of her kids
Ain't that some sh*t?
You're just a small town hypocrite
Oh, swore we'd be running, running, running this town
But you're still running, running, running around
And I'm staring at a picket fence
Wonderin' where the hell time went
I should've been running, running, running by now
But I just hang around
Oh, now I b*t*h about how things turned and how they should've been
The bridges that I burned and the trains I didn't catch
Like a small town hypocrite
Just a small town hypocrite
Homecoming queen couldn't be an outsider
So there I'd sit, with a cigarette lit in a leather jacket
I found a boy who was a stranger too
In a one-horse town at a table for two
We had matching scars and matching tattoos, both dying to fit in
Ain't that some sh*t?
We're just small town hypocrites
And that scholarship was a ship that sailed
When I chose you and daddy gave me hell
I made myself into someone else just to love you, damn, I loved you
Took all my plans and I put 'em in a box
Phantom pains for the wings I lost
Had me circling rings in the catalogs
For seven years and you never got the hint
Ain't that some sh*t?
I'm just a small town hypocrite
Swore we'd be running, running, running this town
But you're just running, running, running around
And I'm staring at a picket fence
Wonderin' where the hell time went
I should've been running, running, running by now
But I just hang around
Love shot me out like a rocket
Never to return, and man, I forgot it
How it feels to fall from orbit
And land on shifting sands
I found my heart at the bottom of a bucket
You said you needed space, and damnit, I bought it
'Til you moved in a vinyl-sided double-wide
With a couple of her kids
Ain't that some sh*t?
You're just a small town hypocrite
Oh, swore we'd be running, running, running this town
But you're still running, running, running around
And I'm staring at a picket fence
Wonderin' where the hell time went
I should've been running, running, running by now
But I just hang around
Oh, now I b*t*h about how things turned and how they should've been
The bridges that I burned and the trains I didn't catch
Like a small town hypocrite
Just a small town hypocrite
